ItemPatterns for Effectively Documenting Frameworks in "Transactions on Pattern Languages of Programming II"( 2011) Ademar Aguiar ; Gabriel DavidGood design and implementation are necessary but not sufficient pre- requisites for successfully reusing object-oriented frameworks. Although not always recognized, good documentation is crucial for effective framework re- use, and often hard, costly, and tiresome, coming with many issues, especially when we are not aware of the key problems and respective ways of addressing them. Based on existing literature, case studies and lessons learned, the authors have been mining proven solutions to recurrent problems of documenting ob- ject-oriented frameworks, and writing them in pattern form, as patterns are a very effective way of communicating expertise and best practices. This paper presents a small set of patterns addressing problems related to the framework documentation itself, here seen as an autonomous and tangible product inde- pendent of the process used to create it. The patterns aim at helping non-experts on cost-effectively documenting object-oriented frameworks. In concrete, these patterns provide guidance on choosing the kinds of documents to produce, how to relate them, and which contents to include. Although the focus is more on the documents themselves, rather than on the process and tools to produce them, some guidelines are also presented in the paper to help on applying the patterns to a specific framework.

ItemCreating and analysing a social network built from clips of online news( 2013) Álvaro FigueiraCurrent online news media are increasingly depending on the participation of readers in their websites while readers increasingly use more sophisticated technology to access online news. In this context, the authors present the Breadcrumbs system and project that aims to provide news readers with tools to collect online news, to create a personal digital library (PDL) of clips taken from news, and to navigate not only on the own PDL, but also on external PDLs that relate to the first one. In this article, the authors present and describe the system and its paradigm for accessing news. We complement the description with the results from several tests which confirm the validity of our approach for clustering of news and for analysing the gathered data.

ItemChallenges to digital preservation of clinical information in the new info-communicational reality( 2013) Goncalves,F ; Gabriel DavidCurrent demands placed by users to health care institutions, regarding the access and management of their clinical information, introduced in this context a new info-communicational reality that involves the adoption of a strategic vision of the role of information management. Accordingly, health care institutions need to deepen their understanding of the information system in order to develop an information strategy to ensure the future preservation and (re)use of clinical information, allowing users an active role in managing their clinical information. With the objective of understanding the power that legitimized users to participate actively in managing their own health information, the present study, supported on the paradigms of complexity by Morin and technological by Castells, addresses the role of digital preservation in Health care as a critical factor in the future communication of the institution with its users, and discusses the different areas of knowledge mobilized in the research on this topic.

ItemA multi-perspective theoretical analysis to web accessibility( 2017) Peixoto,C ; Frederico Branco ; José Luís Martins ; Ramiro GonçalvesAccessibility has become increasingly important in information technology, particularly due to legislation pressure to make affordable public services to all. Being end-users and software companies those who have direct contact with accessibility problems, other stakeholders are committed to defining methods and change mentalities in Web accessibility implementation. In addition to a conceptual definition, this chapter presents entities views with responsibilities in the area, taking into account their work done in the past and the prospects for future. The understanding of the interaction between all these perspectives will help to realize the way it will go, which carries with it great challenges and opportunities, widely explored in this work.
